We received the following report from Sgt. Bill Lee to the Town Watch groups in Washington Township. Emphasis on selected keywords has been added. -MAB

Hello everyone,

There has been a dramatic increase in burglary and thefts to motor vehicles within our township. Unknown subject(s) are stealing GPS systems in the late hours of the night. Victims are leaving GPS systems and or the mount visible to suspects in their vehicles. Suspects are forcing entry or doors are left unsecured so that the system can be removed. Please keep the system and its mount out of the vehicle to prevent from being a victim. These systems are a expensive and popular item. The Wedgewood communities have been targeted recently. Any questions, tips or leads please contact me ASAP.

Thank you,
Sgt. Lee
